No email tabs- switch pages, clock sending-time incorrect- future-time,no paragr.

Question

Since the last rebuild, when many were locked out of email without any forewarning or notification of the rebuild, so that they would KNOW what was going on, the quality of Comcast email has declined drastically!1. I can no longer paragraph... everything is run together after the email is sent. The coding by Comcast in sloppy and inaccurate and no effort is being made to fix this! Some people care about punctuation and appearance of emails. Comcast does not. 2. The clock which says when the email was sent is inaccurate and is set at a time  many hours in the future, which hasn't even occurred yet!!! 3. Transmission of emails is taking up to 48 hours to be received!!! Abyssmal Comcast service!! Maybe the transmission time is wrong on purpose, to cover up the fact that the transmission took 48 hours??? 4. There are no longer tabs at the top to switch from email to email. We need this function restored!!! 5. Why are there so few choices regarding font, etc. Why is there no stationery like Yahoo provides, for sending  special greetings? How hard is that to code???  No effort made by Comcast.... only empty promises and apologies.... and they take your money anyhow without fixing defects. 

Answer 1

Yes, it seems to be a kernel bug. Previously, my wife used Windows for years and nothing like this happened. Now, she tells a lot about Linux systems :-)
An example of this very-ugly-workaround for somebody who'll find this topic struggling with the same problem:
$ cat /etc/pm/sleep.d/99_fix_time_shift
#!/bin/bash
# fixing https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=173487
case "$1" in
suspend)
date +%s > /tmp/suspend.log
resume)
was=`cat /tmp/suspend.log`
now=`date +%s`
# time shifts for 68 hours
if [ $now -gt `expr $was + 244800` ]; then
date -s "`date -R --date="-68 hours ago"`"
## sleep 30; ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com
fi
esac
